Advanced Utilities to Monitor Ingest of Satellite Data

Return to Data Deficiency Troubleshooting Guide.

Following are utilities to assist in monitoring satellite data ingest.
These should be helpful for any data issues which come up at CEMSCS.


First:

1) cd to /dcom/us007003 on prodsp
2) Type:  ls -lt *out*
3) Note the time stamps indicating the last time these files were written to;
   for example:

-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     2400535 Jun 17 15:19 ingest_script_atovs1b.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 dbnprod  dcdprod  2412498 Jun 17 15:19 tranjb.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     2841021 Jun 17 15:19 bufr_transst.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     2258556 Jun 17 15:10 bufr_transatw.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     2167951 Jun 17 15:03 bufr_transsnd.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     2347966 Jun 17 14:51 bufr_tran1x1s.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     1822667 Jun 17 14:37 bufr_trantmi.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     3017565 Jun 17 14:10 bufr_tranimgr.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     1451645 Jun 16 19:00 ingest_sncvgrib.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     2481728 Jun 16 09:26 bufr_transsmi.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     2652933 Jun 16 09:23 bufr_tranquik.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     2197886 Jun 16 09:22 bufr_traners2.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     2249937 Jun 16 09:06 bufr_transbuv.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     1547668 Jun 16 09:05 ingest_script_o3.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     1800633 Jun 15 21:59 ingest_script_1b.out
-rw-rw-r--   1 nwprod   prod     5193823 Mar 19 06:08 errlog.out

where:
ingest_script_atovs1b.out refers to the NOAA-15, -16, -17 ATOVS 1B radiance
 data (AMSU-A, AMSU-B, HIRS-3)
tranjb.out refers to ALL data (decoder and satellite ingest) that is written
 into /dcom via tranjb processing
bufr_transst.out refers to SST data
bufr_transatw.out refers to GOES satellite wind data
bufr_transsnd.out refers to GOES sounding/radiance data (5x5 field of view)
bufr_tran1x1s.out refers to GOES cloud-top data (1x1 field-of-view)
bufr_trantmi.out refers to TRMM/TMI rainfall data
bufr_tranimgr.out refers to GOES imager radiance data ingest_sncvgrib.out
 refers to snow data
bufr_transsmi.out refers to SSM/I data
bufr_tranquik.out refers to QuikSCAT data
bufr_traners2.out refers to ERS data
bufr_transbuv.out refers to NOAA POES SBUV data in BUFR
ingest_script_o3.out refers to NOAA POES SBUV data in IEEE format (soon to
 be turned off)
ingest_script_1b.out refers to the NOAA 14 TOVS 1B radiance data (MSU,HIRS-2)
errlog.out refers to errors coming out of TRANJB run

Except for errlog.out (which we hope hasn't been written to for a long
time), we want to see recent time stamps for these output files.  Notice
when this was run at 3:20 pm local that the ATOVS 1B has started running
again, but the other CEMSCS types still show a time stamp of ~9:30 am local
yesterday.


Second:

1) cd to /com/logs on prodsp
2) type:  grep "NESDIS INGEST: No data" jlogfile | grep "processed"
3) note the length of time since various data types have been processed;
